Node.js execute python script through shell script with passed arguments

Question

So I have some javascript code that will execute a shell scipt:

    var exec = Meteor.npmRequire('child_process').exec;
    exec("/Users/ray/Desktop/scripts/hello.sh");

This shell scipt will execute a python file. I was wondering how could I pass this shell script some arguments for the python script from my javascript code?

exec("python /home/user/script.py foo bar");

@taesu will this work for node.js 0.12.x?

I believe if you were to add your arguments as such:

exec("/Users/ray/Desktop/scripts/hello.sh arg1 arg2 arg3");

It should work.
